What to Eat While Taking GLP-1 Medication: How Nutrition Can Improve Results and Reduce Side Effects

GLP-1 receptor agonists are becoming an increasingly popular option for those looking to support weight loss and better blood sugar control. Originally used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, these medications are now widely prescribed for their impact on appetite regulation, metabolism, and long-term weight management.

However, what many people don’t realise is that nutrition continues to play a critical role while taking GLP-1 medication. The food you eat can either support or hinder the effectiveness of these medications – and it can also influence how well you tolerate them.

I recently wrote an article for FemmePharma Consumer Healthcare exploring the connection between nutrition and GLP-1 receptor agonists. In the article, I share practical advice on what to eat, what to avoid, and how to reduce uncomfortable side effects like nausea, fatigue, or digestive issues.

In the article, you’ll learn:

• How certain foods can ease common side effects

• Why balanced meals matter while taking GLP-1 medication

• Simple nutrition tips to support energy, digestion, and sustainable weight loss

This is not about dieting or food restriction. It’s about helping your body work with the medication, not against it – using realistic, supportive changes that can make all the difference.
